Our custom-fit covers for the GMC G3500 are designed for a streamlined, snug fit. Regarding your specific concerns:

For the Antenna: Every cover includes two (2) Antenna Patch Kits at no extra charge. These kits allow you to easily customize the cover to accommodate any antenna style your vehicle has, ensuring a secure and weather-tight seal.
